RELATED ART

In a new radio (New Radio, NR) system, uplink beam management including transmit beam management and receive beam management may be performed based on a sounding reference signal (Sounding Reference Signal, SRS). For the transmit beam management, a terminal sends SRSs in a plurality of SRS resources by using different beams, and a network side selects at least one SRS resource based on received signal strengths in a plurality of SRS resources and indicates the SRS resource to the terminal, so that the terminal transmits data by using a beam corresponding to the SRS resource. For the receive beam management, the terminal sends SRSs in one or more SRS resources by using the same beam, and the network side receives SRS signals on a plurality of SRS resources based on different receive beams, and selects, according to a received signal strengths, a receive beam used to receive data. In an NR system, a transmit antenna may further be selected based on SRSs or channel state information (Channel State Information, CSI) may further be obtained based on SRSs.

The selection of a transmit power of an SRS signal significantly affects selection of a receive beam and a transmit beam, selection of a transmit antenna, obtaining of channel state information (Channel State Information, CSI) or the like in beam management.

Therefore, how to perform power control on an SRS signal is a problem that urgently needs to be resolved.

As shown in FIG. 2, the method 200 includes at least some of the following content.

210. The terminal device determines a closed-loop power control parameter for an SRS resource set according to a first uplink signal or a first downlink signal corresponding to the SRS resource set.

It should be understood that in this embodiment of this application, that the terminal device determines a closed-loop power control parameter for an SRS resource set may be understood as that the terminal device determines a closed-loop power control parameter for an SRS resource in the SRS resource set. In some cases, the two cases are interchangeable. Optionally, the SRS resource set may include one or more SRS resources.

Optionally, a network device may configure the SRS resource in the SRS resource set, or a configuration of the SRS resource in the SRS resource set may be preset.

Optionally, the configuration of each SRS resource in the SRS resource set may include at least one configuration in the following: an SRS sending period on the SRS resource, an occupied time domain resource, an occupied frequency domain resource, an occupied spatial domain resource, a used code domain resource, SRS sending times that exists after trigger signaling is received, and/or the like.

Optionally, each SRS resource in the SRS resource set may have an independent configuration parameter, for example, an SRS sending period, an occupied time domain resource, an occupied frequency domain resource, an occupied spatial domain resource, a used code domain resource, SRS sending times that exists after trigger signaling is received, and/or the like. These independent configuration parameters may have different values for SRS resources.

Optionally, the SRS resources in the SRS resource set may have a common configuration parameter, for example, an SRS sending period. That is, the SRS resources may have different SRS sending periods.

It should be understood that the SRS resources in the SRS resource set in this embodiment of this application may have the same SRS sending period. In this case, in each SRS sending period, an SRS is sent on all the SRS resources. The method mentioned in this embodiment of this application may be applied to sending of an SRS resource in each period.

Optionally, the SRS resource set is an SRS resource set used for performing uplink beam management.

Specifically, the uplink beam management performed based on an SRS may include transmit beam management and receive beam management.

For the transmit beam management, the terminal device sends SRSs in a plurality of SRS resources by using different beams, and the network device selects at least one SRS resource based on received signal strengths in a plurality of SRS resources and indicates the SRS resource to the terminal device, so that the terminal device may use a beam corresponding to the SRS resource to transmit data to the network device.

For the receive beam management, the terminal device may use the same beam to send an SRS on one or more SRS resources, and the network device receives SRS signals on a plurality of SRS resources based on different receive beams, and selects, according to a received signal strengths, a receive beam used to receive data.

Optionally, the SRS resource set an SRS resource set used for selecting a transmit antenna.

Specifically, the terminal device uses different transmit antennas to send SRSs on a plurality of SRS resources, and the network device selects at least one SRS resource based on received signal strengths in a plurality of SRS resources and indicates the SRS resource to the terminal device, so that the terminal device may use a transmit antenna corresponding to the SRS resource to transmit data to the network device.

Optionally, the SRS resource set is used for obtaining CSI. The CSI may be CSI of an uplink channel or CSI of a downlink channel. If the SRS resource set is used for obtaining CSI of a downlink channel, this application may be used for a scenario with uplink and downlink reciprocity. Optionally, the SRS resource set is used to carry a group of aperiodic SRS transmissions triggered by one piece of aperiodic SRS trigger signaling.

Specifically, the network device may trigger aperiodic SRS trigger signaling as required. After receiving the aperiodic SRS trigger signaling, the terminal device may use the SRS resource set to transmit a group of aperiodic SRS transmissions. The aperiodic SRS trigger signaling may be carried in DCI.

Optionally, the SRS resource set is used to carry a group of continuous SRS transmissions activated by one piece of continuous SRS activation signaling.

Specifically, the network device may use SRS activation signaling to activate continuous SRS transmissions. After receiving the SRS activation signaling, the terminal device may use the SRS resource set to transmit a group of continuous SRS transmissions. The continuous SRS transmissions may be periodic SRS transmissions.

Optionally, the terminal device may determine the same closed-loop power control parameter for SRS resources in the SRS resource set.

It should be understood that, if the same closed-loop power control parameter is used for each SRS resource, only one closed-loop power control parameter may be determined for one SRS resource set (that is, the closed-loop power control parameter may only need to be determined once), and it may be not necessary to determine one closed-loop power control parameter for each resource.

Specifically, for both transmit beam management and receive beam management, the terminal device may use the same transmit power for SRS signals sent on different SRS resources. In this case, the network device may select a more appropriate transmit/receive beam according to receive signal strength. If the same closed-loop power control parameter is determined for SRS resources in the SRS resource set, the same transmit power or similar transmit powers may be determined, so that the terminal device may use the same transmit power or similar transmit powers to send an SRS resource.

Optionally, the closed-loop power control parameter is determined for an SRS resource in the SRS resource set according to the same first uplink signal or first downlink signal.

Specifically, to determine the same closed-loop power control parameter or similar closed-loop power control parameters, the terminal device may determine the closed-loop power control parameter for the SRS resources in the SRS resource set according to the same first uplink signal or first downlink signal.

Optionally, a closed-loop power control parameter used to calculate a transmit power of the first uplink signal is determined as the closed-loop power control parameter.

For example, when the first uplink signal is a latest sent PUCCH, a closed-loop power control parameter used to calculate a transmit power of the PUCCH may be used as the closed-loop power control parameter determined for the SRS resource set.

For example, when the first uplink signal is an SRS transmitted on one SRS resource in the SRS resource set, a closed-loop power control parameter may be calculated for the SRS resource, and the calculated closed-loop power control parameter is used as the closed-loop power control parameter corresponding to all SRS resources in the SRS resource set.

For example, when the first uplink signal is an SRS transmitted on an SRS resource indicated by a latest received SRI, the terminal device may determine, when receiving the SRI, a closed-loop power control parameter used to send the SRS on the SRS resource indicated by the SRI, and use the closed-loop power control parameter as the closed-loop power control parameter corresponding to all SRS resources in the SRS resource set. Certainly, the terminal device may alternatively redetermine, when receiving the SRI, a closed-loop power control parameter for the SRS resource indicated by the SRI, and use the calculated closed-loop power control parameter as the closed-loop power control parameter corresponding to all SRS resources in the SRS resource set.

Optionally, before the determining, by the terminal device, a closed-loop power control parameter for an SRS resource set according to a first uplink signal or a first downlink signal corresponding to the SRS resource set, the terminal device may select the first uplink signal or the first downlink signal used to determine the closed-loop power control parameter.

Certainly, the determining the closed-loop power control parameter according to the first uplink signal or the first downlink signal mentioned in this embodiment of this application may be determining the closed-loop power control parameter according to a resource occupied by the first uplink signal or the first uplink signal. In this case, it means that the terminal device may not need to determine the first uplink signal or the first downlink signal, but instead uses a resource of the first uplink signal or the first downlink signal. That is, provided that the resource of the first uplink signal or the first downlink signal mentioned in this embodiment of this application is used to determine the closed-loop power control parameter, the determining falls within the protection scope of this embodiment of this application.

In an implementation, the terminal device receives first indication information sent by the network device, where the first indication information is used to indicate the first uplink signal or the first downlink signal corresponding to the SRS resource set or is used to indicate a resource that carries the first uplink signal, a resource that carries the first downlink signal or a resource on which a first beam or a first beam pair is used to receive or send a signal.

Specifically, the network device may indicate, according to an actual case, the first uplink signal or the first downlink signal used by the terminal device to determine the closed-loop power control parameter or indicate a resource that carries the first uplink signal or a resource that carries the first downlink signal.

For example, assuming that the network device requires that the terminal device use a relatively high transmit power to send an SRS, an uplink signal or a downlink signal by using which a higher closed-loop power adjustment value may be calculated and a resource that carries the uplink signal or downlink signal may be indicated to the terminal device.

Optionally, the first indication information and configuration information of the SRS resource set may be configured for the terminal device together by using radio resource control (Radio Resource Control, RRC) signaling, or the first indication information and trigger signaling or activation signaling of the SRS resource set may be indicated to the terminal device together by using downlink control information (Downlink Control Information, DCI) or a media access control (Media Access Control, MAC) control element (Control Element, CE).

Optionally, the first indication information is used to indicate one SRS resource in the SRS resource set, so that the terminal device may determine the first uplink signal (that is, an SRS sent by using the SRS resource) based on the SRS resource, and determine the closed-loop power control parameter, or directly use the SRS resource (for example, an index of a slot occupied by the SRS resource) to determine the closed-loop power control parameter.

Alternatively, the first indication information is used to indicate one uplink signal or one downlink signal corresponding to the SRS resource set.

For example, the first indication information indicates an uplink signal carried in an SRS resource in the SRS resource set or a downlink signal carried in a CSI-RS resource corresponding to an SRS resource in the SRS resource set, so that the terminal device may determine the closed-loop power control parameter according to a resource (for example, an index of a slot occupied by the resource) occupied by the uplink signal or downlink signal.

In another implementation, the first uplink signal or the first downlink signal corresponding to the SRS resource set is determined according to a first preset relationship. Optionally, the first preset relationship is preconfigured at delivery.

Optionally, the first preset relationship may indicate which uplink signal(s) or downlink signal(s) is the first uplink signal or the first downlink signal used to determine the closed-loop power control parameter for the SRS resource set, and the first uplink signal or the first downlink signal may be selected for the SRS resource set based on the relationship.

For example, the first preset relationship indicates that the first uplink signal used to determine the closed-loop power control parameter for the SRS resource set is a latest sent physical uplink shared channel (Physical Uplink Shared Channel, PUSCH) or physical uplink control channel (Physical Uplink Control Channel, PUCCH) signal, and the terminal device may use the latest sent PUSCH or PUCCH signal as the first uplink signal.

For example, the first preset relationship indicates that the first downlink signal used to determine the closed-loop power control parameter for the SRS resource set may be a latest downlink signal used by the terminal device to determine an uplink transmit beam, and the terminal device may use the latest downlink signal used to determine the uplink transmit beam as the first downlink signal.

Optionally, the closed-loop power control parameter mentioned in this embodiment of this application may be a closed-loop power adjustment value, an index of a slot in the closed-loop power adjustment function or an index of a closed-loop power control process in the closed-loop power adjustment function.

Optionally, the terminal device determines an index of a slot in which the first downlink signal is transmitted or an index of a slot in which the first uplink signal is transmitted as an index of a slot in the closed-loop power adjustment function used to perform power control on the SRS resource set.

Specifically, a transmit power of an SRS signal may be determined by using the following formula:

${{P_{{SRS},c}(i)} = {\min\begin{Bmatrix} {{P_{{CMAX},c}(i)},} \\ \begin{matrix} {{P_{{SRS\_ OFFSET},c}(m)} + {10{\log_{10}\left( {M_{{SRS},c}(i)} \right)}} +} \\ {{P_{0,c}(j)} + {{\alpha_{c}(j)} \cdot {{PL}_{c}(k)}} + {h_{c}\left( {i,\ 1} \right)}} \end{matrix} \end{Bmatrix}}},$

where i is an index of a slot, j is an index of an open-loop power control parameter, m is an index of an SRS power offset, and k is an index of a reference signal RS resource used for path loss estimation. h_(c)(i, 1) is a closed-loop power adjustment function, and 1 is an index of a closed-loop power control process.

The closed-loop power control parameter mentioned in this embodiment of this application may be an index i of a slot or an index 1 of a closed-loop power control process in the closed-loop power adjustment function h_(c) (i, 1) in the foregoing formula, or may be the closed-loop power adjustment value obtained by using the closed-loop power adjustment function.

It should be understood that the closed-loop power control parameter in this embodiment of this application may be an index of a slot or may be an index of another time unit, for example, an index of an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing, OFDM) symbol or an index of a subframe.

Optionally, the slot mentioned in this embodiment of this application may be a mini slot.

Optionally, the first uplink signal is an SRS, a PUSCH, a PUCCH, a PRACH, a DMRS or a PTRS.

Optionally, the first uplink signal is an SRS transmitted on one SRS resource in the SRS resource set.

In an implementation, the network device may indicate an index of the SRS resource in the SRS resource set, and the closed-loop power control parameter of the SRS resource may be used for all the other SRS resources in the SRS resource set.

In an implementation, the first uplink signal is an uplink signal transmitted on an SRS resource with the lowest SRS resource index in the SRS resource set.

In an implementation, the first uplink signal is an uplink signal transmitted on the earliest SRS resource in the SRS resource set.

Specifically, if indices of the SRS resource in the SRS resource set are arranged in an ascending order of time, the earliest SRS resource in the SRS resource set may be an SRS resource with the lowest index.

Optionally, the first uplink signal is an SRS transmitted on an SRS resource indicated by latest received SRS resource indication information (SRS Resource Indication Information, SRI).

Specifically, before receiving the SRI, the terminal device may transmit an SRS signal in an SRS resource set (where the SRS resource set may be the resource group mentioned in this embodiment of this application) that includes the SRS resource indicated by the SRI. Each SRS resource may optionally be transmitted by using one beam. The SRI is usually indicated to the terminal device by using a DCI for scheduling transmission of uplink data or scheduling transmission of uplink control information. For example, the SRI may be indicated to the terminal device by using DCI for triggering the aperiodic SRS.

Optionally, the first uplink signal is a latest SRS transmitted by the terminal device on another SRS resource outside the SRS resource set.

The other SRS resources are SRS resources used by the network device to obtain channel state information (Channel State Information, CSI). In this case, the SRS resource in the SRS resource set mentioned in this embodiment of this application may be used for performing beam management, for example, uplink beam management or downlink beam management.

Optionally, the first downlink signal is a CSI-RS, a synchronization signal, a synchronization signal block, a TRS, a PTRS, a PDSCH, a PDCCH or a DMRS.

For example, the network device may preconfigure a plurality of CSI-RS resources by using higher layer signaling, and then indicate that an index of a slot of one of the CSI-RS resources is used to determine the closed-loop power control parameter.

For example, the network device may send a plurality of synchronization signal blocks, and indicate an index of a slot used to obtain a synchronization signal block of the closed-loop power control parameter, so that the terminal device may determine the closed-loop power control parameter based on the index.

Optionally, the first downlink signal is a downlink signal used to obtain a path loss estimate for performing power control on the SRS resource set. In this case, the downlink signal is a channel state information reference signal CSI-RS or a synchronization signal block.

The terminal device may estimate a downlink path loss value based on a downlink signal, where the same downlink signal is used to estimate a downlink path loss value for SRS resources in the SRS resource set, and the downlink signal used to estimate the downlink path loss value may further be used to determine the closed-loop power control parameter.

Optionally, to calculate a corresponding path loss value for an SRS resource, a CSI-RS may be received on a CSI-RS resource corresponding to the SRS resource, and a path loss value is calculated based on a transmit power and a receive power of the CSI-RS.

Optionally, CSI-RS resources may have a one-to-one correspondence with SRS resources, or one CSI-RS resource may correspond to a plurality of SRS resources.

Optionally, a path loss value is estimated according to a receive power and a transmit power of the first downlink signal, and the estimated path loss value is determined as the path loss estimate corresponding to the SRS resource set.

For example, if the receive power is P1 and the transmit power is P2, the path loss value is denoted as PL=P1/P2. The path loss estimate is usually denoted as dB. That is, PL(dB)=10*lg(P1/P2)(dB).

Optionally, the network device may notify the terminal device of the transmit power of the first downlink signal in advance by using downlink signaling. For example, when the first downlink signal is a CSI-RS, the transmit power may be included in configuration information for sending CSI-RS resource of the CSI-RS to be notified the terminal device.

Optionally, in addition to a CSI-RS or a synchronization signal block, the first downlink signal may also be another downlink signal, for example, a physical downlink shared channel (Physical Downlink Shared Channel, PDSCH).

Optionally, the terminal device determines the target transmit power for SRS resources in the SRS resource set by using the same closed-loop power control parameter.

It should be understood that, if the same transmit power is used for the SRS resources, only one transmit power may be determined for one SRS resource set, and it may be not necessary to determine one transmit power for each resource.

Optionally, the closed-loop power control parameter may be determined according to the following formula:

${{P_{{SRS},c}(i)} = {\min\begin{Bmatrix} {{P_{{CMAX},c}(i)},} \\ \begin{matrix} {{P_{{SRS\_ OFFSET},c}(m)} + {10{\log_{10}\left( {M_{{SRS},c}(i)} \right)}} +} \\ {{P_{0,c}(j)} + {{\alpha_{c}(j)} \cdot {{PL}_{c}(k)}} + {h_{c}\left( {i,\ 1} \right)}} \end{matrix} \end{Bmatrix}}},$

310. A terminal device determines a target transmit power for an SRS resource set by using an index of a time unit occupied by a reference resource as a closed-loop power control parameter.

It should be understood that the SRS resources in the SRS resource set in this embodiment of this application may have the same SRS sending period. In this case, in each SRS sending period, an SRS is sent on all the SRS resources. The method mentioned in this embodiment of this application may be applied to sending of an SRS resource in each period.

Optionally, the SRS resource set may be used for performing uplink beam management, selecting a transmit antenna or obtaining CSI.

Optionally, the time unit mentioned in this embodiment of this application may be a slot, a mini slot, an OFDM symbol or the like.

Optionally, the target transmit power is determined for SRS resources in the SRS resource set by using an index of a time unit occupied by the same reference resource as the closed-loop power control parameter.

Specifically, to determine the same closed-loop power control parameter, the terminal device may use a time unit occupied by the same reference resource as a closed-loop power control parameter corresponding to the SRS resource in the SRS resource set.

Optionally, before the determining, by a terminal device, a target transmit power for an SRS resource set by using an index of a time unit occupied by a reference resource as a closed-loop power control parameter, the terminal device may determine a reference resource.

In an implementation, the terminal device receives first indication information sent by a network device, where the first indication information is used to indicate a reference resource corresponding to the SRS resource set.

Specifically, the network device may indicate, according to an actual case, a reference resource used by the terminal device to determine the closed-loop power control parameter.

For example, when it is assumed that the network device requires that the terminal device use a relatively high transmit power to send an SRS, a reference resource by using which a higher closed-loop power adjustment value may be calculated may be indicated to the terminal device.

Optionally, the first indication information and configuration information of the SRS resource set may be configured for the terminal device together by using radio resource control (Radio Resource Control, RRC) signaling, or the first indication information and trigger signaling or activation signaling of the SRS resource set may be indicated to the terminal device together by using downlink control information (Downlink Control Information, DCI) or a media access control (Media Access Control, MAC) control element (Control Element, CE).

Optionally, if the reference resource occupies a plurality of time units, the terminal device uses an index of the first time unit occupied by the reference resource as the closed-loop power control parameter.

Optionally, the reference resource mentioned in this embodiment of this application may be an uplink resource or may be a downlink resource.

For example, the reference resource is an SRS resource with the lowest SRS resource index in the SRS resource set.

For example, the reference resource is the earliest SRS resource in the SRS resource set.

Specifically, if indices of the SRS resource in the SRS resource set are arranged in an ascending order of time, the earliest SRS resource in the SRS resource set may be an SRS resource with the lowest index.

In an implementation, the reference resource is an SRS resource indicated by latest SRS resource indication information received by the terminal device.

Specifically, before receiving the SRI, the terminal device may transmit an SRS signal in an SRS resource set (where the SRS resource set may be the resource group mentioned in this embodiment of this application) that includes the SRS resource indicated by the SRI. Each SRS resource may optionally be transmitted by using one beam. The SRI is usually indicated to the terminal device by using a DCI for scheduling transmission of uplink data or scheduling transmission of uplink control information. For example, the SRI may be indicated to the terminal device by using DCI for triggering the aperiodic SRS.

In an implementation, the reference resource is a resource occupied by a downlink signal used to obtain a path loss estimate for performing power control on the SRS resource set.

Optionally, the downlink signal is a channel state information reference signal CSI-RS or a synchronization signal block.

Optionally, the terminal device determines the same transmit power for the SRS resources in the SRS resource set.

It should be understood that, if the same transmit power is used for the SRS resources, only one transmit power may be determined for one SRS resource set, and it may be not necessary to determine one transmit power for each resource.

Optionally, the closed-loop power control parameter may be determined according to the following formula:

${{P_{{SRS},c}(i)} = {\min\begin{Bmatrix} {{P_{{CMAX},c}(i)},} \\ \begin{matrix} {{P_{{SRS\_ OFFSET},c}(m)} + {10{\log_{10}\left( {M_{{SRS},c}(i)} \right)}} +} \\ {{P_{0,c}(j)} + {{\alpha_{c}(j)} \cdot {{PL}_{c}(k)}} + {h_{c}\left( {i,\ 1} \right)}} \end{matrix} \end{Bmatrix}}},$
